President Wilson says that ali men in the country who are not able to go to the front should take up this patriotic The National Scouts has make this call, and the days of Feb- Sth to 12th will sce under way a vigorous nation-wide campaign for $200,000 a year for three years and a Scoutleaders Reserve Corps of 100,000 men. At no time in all the world's his- tory have boy just boy had such an opportunity as they now have for | helping their country. Never before were boys asked by their government to do such big things for it as have the Boy Scouts of merica. Never before have men—real men | who want to be at the front. but an't—had the chance for service that is now presented to meet their duty as leaders to this tremendous army of boys ready to play the part that Uncle Sam has put upon them. Scouts Largest Body in World. Do these me know that the Boy Scouts of America is the greatest single volunteer organization in the world? It was the largest organ tion taking part in the two cam- paigns for the Liberty Loan. There are millions of Scouts all over the world, in every country. Since America went to war to save our liberties and preserve the civili- zation for which our forefather: fought and died, the things that hav happened to the Boy Scouts of Ame ica and the part that Boy Scouts all over the globe have been called upon to play in pressing forward the activ- ities that will win this war have made an epoch in the boy life of this land and of the world. War conditions demand an increase in numbers and efliciency. There should be two million Boy Scouts of America in the country. There would be that number if men who may not £0 to the front would undertake at home this work of practical pa- triotism. The boys are ready; it is the Scoutmasters that are needed "he boys who are not yet Scouts arc Jjust as anxious to serve the nation as the Boy Scouts who are. The Presldent of the United States | has given Scouting a definite place in the national aff The istration s much for the Scouts to do The secretary of the tr and the secretary of agriculture the food administrator and the com- mittee on public information have great plans that the Scouts arc best | fitted to carry out. More Scouts are needed. The num- { bers of those applying for ship can be increased only throu the securing of more men as leade and more money for expenses. The Boy Scouts have proven their own worth and the wisdom of their ten-year-old slogan of “Be Prepared’” and of their Scout oath and law. They have won the hearts of the people. The Boy Scout movement has demonstrated its value. Not a city and scarcely a town in the United States has failed to receive the bene- fit of the Boy Scout idea. Under war conditions, the need for troops of Scouts is enormously in- creased. The boy can no longer be left to play without a purpose. He is as greatly needed for the real tasks which he can perform as is the soldier on the firing line or the work- men in the munitions factory. No boy should be left without a real task to perform for the govern- ment. His energy if not utilized will be worse than wasted. KRYLENKO SEIZED Commander in Chief of Bols work.
